In October of the tenth year of Jian'an, Xiangyang was dripping with light rain, and the wind-shrouded Xiangyang City stood on the edge of the rolling Han River, as if it had thousands of years of vicissitudes of life.

The heavy rain from May to June this year almost flooded the city of Xiangyang, but fortunately, Liu Biao sent people to dredge the river and dig and build a canal, so that the disaster was averted.

Since then, Liu Biao has rarely lived in the palace of the king of Chu, but often lives in the palace of Xianshan to recuperate.

After Liu Bei entered Xiangyang City, he wanted to visit Liu Biao, but when he came this time, he also thought of an excuse, saying that Jingnan was remote and grain and grass were not suitable for transportation, and he also wanted the king of Chu to be able to mobilize grain and grass for him on the spot.

Although the Jingnan area is far away from the political center, its development is not bad, and Changsha County sits on the Dongting Lake Plain, with abundant grain production and a population of one million, making it a very good base area.

It's just that he also understands that Liu Biao's purpose in transferring him to Jingnan is to restrict his development, so based on this problem, he needs to keep asking Liu Biao for requests.

If you know, you know, but because you know, you can't bear it, and you have to make a voice at the right time, otherwise people won't pay attention to him.

However, since Liu Biao was not in Xiangyang, then he would do other things first, Liu Bei went to visit Deng Hong first, and then under his guidance, he went out of Xicheng and went all the way in the direction of Longzhong.

The sky is dark, the light rain continues, since Xiangyang comes out, about half an hour, it is to the pavilion, the pavilion is still like yesterday, because it is raining, there is no market recently, the street of the pavilion is sparsely populated, only the school in the southwest comes from the sound of reading aloud.

Liu Bei rode a horse and wore a coat to walk in the rain, he asked the locals, there is a hill in Longzhong Township in front, and there are several families in the gang, one of which is the courtyard of the Zhuge family, not the middle school hall under the mountain.

It's just that seeing that there is a academy in such a situation in this countryside, it seems that there are hundreds of students in Lang Lang's book, which is something that cannot be seen in other places, so Liu Bei said to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei: "There are people in this countryside who can accept so many students, and the surrounding people are convinced, there must be virtuous." ”

There happened to be a villager passing by, and when he heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "It's a good insight, yes, our Longzhong Township has today's township virtue, all because that gentleman is teaching and educating people here, and many villagers in the countryside are also willing to entrust students to him." ”

"It turns out that there is really a great sage here, so you should pay a visit."

When Liu Bei heard about this, he dismounted and came to the door of the school, because he was still studying in the door, it was inconvenient to knock on the door, so he stood in front of the door and waited.

It was still raining, and it took about ten minutes before the sound of reading in the school stopped.

Liu Bei wanted to knock on the door, but the door opened by itself.

It turned out that this time was the time of the lunch break, the students went home from school to eat, and they would continue to come to class in the afternoon, and the teacher Wang Yan opened the door and let the students go back.

Suddenly seeing three strangers standing outside the door, Wang Yan was startled, and then looked at it again, thinking that it was a parent who came to send the child to school, so he said, "Are the three of you here to take the child to study?" If so, you can come in and register. ”

"General Zuo? Uncle Zhang! ”

Before Wang Yan's words were finished, someone in the door suddenly shouted in surprise.

Liu Bei followed the voice, but he didn't expect to see Shan Yi's tall figure, so he said in surprise: "It turned out to be Yide." ”

Zhang Fei's eyes widened and said, "Shan Yi, why are you here?" I thought you were going with your master. ”

At the end of school, everyone was crowded at the door, many students didn't know what was going on, and Wang Yan was also wondering.

Wu Dang, one of the six sages of the Shen Sect, had also been to Zigui with Shen Chen before, and when he saw that everyone was blocking the door, he said: "General Zuo, please come in first, let's let go, and you junior brothers go back first." ”

Wu Danglai was one of the first six people to follow Shen Chen, and the second was the oldest, so he was quite prestigious, and when he saw him talking, everyone got out of the way, and Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei walked in from outside.

After they came in, many students took their rain gear and walked out of the school one by one, and there were many chatters on the way about what the person was General Zuo and the like.

The rest of Xie Hui, Zhang Li, Hu Wei, Huo Yang, Wu Tao, Shan Yi and others naturally did not leave, and there were about a dozen Shen Chen disciples who entered the room, and they hugged the three of them to the back hall.

Along the way, Liu Bei was confused and invited into the back hall to sit, and no one of them sat on the main seat, but let Liu Bei sit under the right hand of the main seat.

After everyone sat down, Wu Dang said to Liu Bei: "Why did General Zuo suddenly come to the pavilion?" ”

Liu Bei explained: "I went back to Jingzhou this time to find the king of Chu to say something, I heard that there was a great talent in Longzhong Township, so I came to visit, passing by the door, I saw the sound of reading here again and again, so I wanted to knock on the door to ask, because everyone was still studying, so I waited outside the door for a while. ”

"I see."

Only then did everyone know why.

"Why are Chengming and Yide here?"

Liu Bei asked curiously.

Zhang Fei also shouted: "Yes, Shan Yi, aren't you with your master?" ”

Shan Yi said embarrassedly: "Shijun went to Jiangxia alone, although I wanted to go with me, but Shijun said that my parents were not far away and would not let me go." ”

It wasn't far to go to Zigui before, that is, to Huang Huang in Nanjun, but if you go to Jiangxia, you will even fight to Jiangdong, which is very far away, and Shen Chen naturally won't let his disciples follow.

So after the battle of Zigui, Shen Chen asked Wu Dang Shan Yi and them to come back, although Shan Yi is tall and powerful, but the martial arts are very sparse, at that time in Wuling, he also followed Zhang Fei to learn martial arts for a period of time, so the two sides are familiar.

At this time, Liu Bei also came to his senses and said, "Is this here?" ”

"It's a school opened by Shijun."

Wu Dang introduced them one by one, and introduced Wang Yan, Xie Hui, Zhang Li, Hu Wei, Huo Yang, Wu Tao and others to Liu Bei.

Of course, Liu Bei didn't know that these students were the children of the scholars cultivated by Shen Chen, and they planned to be used to replace those gate valve families in the future, but he was still very happy to see so many talents, and he knew them one by one.

Everyone had long heard Wu Dangshan Yi talk about Liu Bei's demeanor, and when they saw it today, they learned that he was waiting outside the door in order not to disturb them reading, and they couldn't help but feel that he had a good character, so they bowed their hands and talked to Liu Bei very enthusiastically.

"Mr. Xiao is not only a scholar and a martial artist, but also a teacher and an educator."

Liu Bei couldn't help but praise: "You are all good talents, and you must have got the mantle of Mr. Xiao." ”

Xie Hui smiled bitterly: "Elder Shijun said that we are not virtuous enough, and we still have to practice." ”

"Master, this is to be strict with us."

Wu Dang said seriously: "This time I followed Shijun to Zigui, and I benefited a lot. ”

"By the way, General Zuo, are you here to find Shijun?"

Shan Yi asked.

Liu Bei shook his head and said: "I heard that there is a great talent in Longzhong Township, but I also know that Mr. Xiao has gone to Jiangxia now, and it is said that there is a Zhuge Kongming here?" ”

"You mean Mr. Zhuge ."

Wang Yan said with a smile: "Mr. Zhuge lives in the hill in front, and he is close friends with the owner. ”

"I see."

Liu Bei got up and said, "Since this is the case, then I will go to that hill to have a look, and if I have time, I will come to the school to visit you again." ”

Wu Dang immediately said, "General Zuo, I'll take you there." ”

"I'll go too."

Shan Yi also clamored.

Because everyone was not familiar with Liu Bei, they were embarrassed to open their mouths, so they didn't follow.

At that moment, Wu Dang and Shan Yi took Liu Bei to the hill.

It was late autumn and early winter in October, and in the continuous drizzle, the grass and trees in the mountains were yellow and brown, and there were streams trickling.

A pool of water was dug outside the courtyard of the Zhuge family's grass house, extending from the courtyard, and there was a wooden suspension bridge built on the pond, extending all the way to the grass house, and there was a water wheel next to it to automatically draw water.

Liu Bei stood by the stream and looked out, seeing that the waterwheel had never been seen, and he was curious for a while, Wu Dang introduced: "Shijun often loves to do some craftsmanship with Mr. Zhuge together, and the waterwheel is made by Shijun and Mr., it seems that there is not only a waterwheel, but also some other places, in the backyard they have a craftsman's room, often knocking in it." ”

"Striking iron?"

Zhang Fei said curiously: "I'm good at this craft." ”

Although he was born as a dry butcher, as a general, he will naturally strike iron, not only him, but Guan Yu will also.

Wu Dang smiled: "I don't know, but I do make some weapons and armor." ”

While a few people were talking, they came to the grass house.

Shan Yi hurriedly knocked on the door.

There was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who opened the door, but it wasn't Anu.

Anu looked at them curiously at the door, and asked in a voice as clear as a bell, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"I'm looking for Mr. Zhuge ."

Seeing the pretty Anu, Zhang Fei suddenly remembered his own Mrs. Xiahou, and for a moment his childlike heart rose, his black face was like a needle-pricked beard, and he leaned over and said, "Do you know where he is?" ”

"Yikes!"

Anu was so frightened that she screamed and closed the door, and ran to the backyard in a panic, shouting as she ran: "Shaolang, it's not good, a black-faced monster has broken in." ”

Liu Bei glanced at Zhang Fei reproachfully and said, "Third brother must not be reckless, you see that everyone treats you as a monster." ”

Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, people have called those weird, abnormal things and the spirits of plants and animals monsters, although the monster at that time was not a derogatory term, but it was certainly not much better.

Zhang Fei scratched his head and smiled: "I saw that this sister-in-law was very interesting, so I scared her." ”

As he spoke, the door quickly opened again.

A young scholar in a cyan robe stood inside the door, and before he could speak, Liu Bei hurriedly apologized: "But Mr. Zhuge ? Just now my third brother was reckless, and please don't blame Mr. ”

The scholar said strangely: "What are the feet?" ”

"Under Liu Bei, the word Xuande."

Liu Bei introduced: "This is my second brother Guan Yu, the word Yunchang, and the third brother, the word Yide." ”

"It turned out to be General Zuo."

The young scholar bowed to Liu Bei.

Wu Dang and Shan Yi also bowed and said, "Mr. Ziping." ”

Mr. Ziping?

Liu Bei was puzzled for a while, could this young man be?

Zhuge Jun said with a smile: "In Xia Zhuge Jun, the word Ziping, General Zuo is looking for my brother." ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Ziping."

Liu Bei learned that the person in front of him was Zhuge Liang's younger brother, so he asked, "I don't know if Mr. Kong Ming is at home now?" ”

Zhuge Jun said: "But it's unfortunate that my brother took his sister-in-law back to his uncle's house in the past two days. ”

The wife-in-law does not refer to the wife's brother's house, but to the father-in-law's house. Because the Han Dynasty called the father-in-law an uncle, the wife-in-law also referred to the mother's family at that time.

Liu Bei was a little disappointed, but he still cheered up and asked, "This is not the right time, I don't know when Mr. will come back?" ”

"It's not good to say, maybe three or five days, three times will come back after this winter."

Zhuge Jun said: "If the general is in a hurry, you can go to Baishui in the south to find him, although it is a little far away from Longzhong, but if you take a boat, from the water to Liqiu, and then to the east in the direction of Zhangling for twenty or thirty miles, you can get to Baishui." ”

Liu Bei shook his head and said: "Mr. went to his wife's uncle's house, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to bother, since this is the case, then please ask Mr. Ziping to inform Mr. Kong Ming, and Liu Bei will visit him on another day." ”

"Won't the general come into the house and sit?"

Zhuge asked.

Liu Bei smiled: "It's getting late, so don't bother." ”

"Then I won't send the general."

"Sir, take your leave."

Liu Bei arched his hand to him and turned to leave.

Zhuge Jun stood at the door and watched his back leave, and when he disappeared into the forest, the door was closed.

Anu said crisply: "Shaolang, did you see that black-faced monster?" ”

Zhuge Jun said with a smile: "That's General Zuo's third brother Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, don't say that people are monsters, lest people be unhappy." ”

"But he looks like a big monster with a black face."

Anu muttered.

Zhuge Jun shook his head with a smile and returned to the grass house to continue studying.

I don't know how many years have passed in the mountains, and after Liu Bei left Longzhong, he went north to Wancheng again.

In fact, he still has a certain foundation in Wancheng, and the local people and officials love him very much, and when they heard that he was back, they greeted him one after another.

After staying in Wancheng for a few days, at the end of November, he went south and returned to Xiangyang again.

Because of the cold in the mountains, Liu Biao moved back to the Chu Palace, heard that Liu Bei was coming, and refused to summon him until these days Liu Bei repeatedly went to the book, and there was really no way to excuse him to see him once.

The main reason is that Liu Biao knew that he was at a loss, so he asked Liu Bei to help him work, and he went north to fight Cao Cao, and he went to fight Liu Zhang.

In the end, he was even sent to the miasma-ridden Jingnan region to quell the barbarian rebellion, making it seem like he had become a tool in his hands, using others when he used it, and throwing it aside when he didn't use it, which was really unkind.

But Jia Xu also said that Liu Bei was an unstable factor who claimed to be the emperor by himself, so when there was no way to get rid of Liu Bei, Liu Biao could only choose to drag Liu Bei, and naturally he couldn't make him stronger.

After Liu Bei came to see him this time, he really came to him again to ask for weapons, grain and grass equipment, but Liu Bei also had a reason to work for you, and he didn't give you food, grass and weapons and equipment, which was too unparticular.

Although Liu Biao was at a loss, he still complied with Jia Xu's words, and in the end he only gave a small part of the grain and grass to send it first, and did not give Liu Bei the grain and grass weapons and equipment he wanted.

In December, it snowed heavily in Jingzhou, and in the midst of the snow, Liu Bei set off for Longzhong again.

When he arrived in Longzhong Township, the world was already covered with snow, Liu Bei was wearing a purple robe and a big red plush cloak on the outside. ”

Zhang Fei shouted: "It's a cold day and heavy snow, let's not sit by the parents to rest by the stove, but we have to run so far to see the useless people, I'm really afraid that the eldest brother's body will be frozen." ”

"I just want Kong Ming to know that I am sincere, if the third brother is afraid of the cold, you can go back first, and I can go with Yun Chang."

Liu Bei rubbed the wind and snow on his coat and hat.

Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "Follow the eldest brother to be born and die, I am not afraid of death, I am afraid of the cold, I am afraid that the eldest brother will waste all his thoughts, even if he goes, then Kong Ming does not agree, how can it be good." ”

Guan Yu said: "Since Mr. Yuan Zhi said, presumably Mr. Kong Ming also has the heart to serve the country, otherwise Mr. Yuan Zhi would not recommend it." ”

"Not bad."

Liu Bei also said: "Mr. Kong Ming and Mr. Xiao have a good relationship, and they are also people who care about the Han family." ”

The three of them were talking, they had already walked through the pavilion, entered the hill, the mountain road was rugged, the bamboo shadow was forested, and among the bamboos on the left side of the road, there was a bamboo house, and there was a singing sound from inside.

"Big brother, look."

Guan Yu pointed to the bamboo house and said: "In front of him is Mr. Kong Ming's house, but there is a bamboo house here, don't you be afraid that Mr. Kong Ming and his friends are singing?" ”

"Oh?"

Liu Bei said, "Let's go and have a look." ”

The three of them rode to the bamboo house, and the singing was becoming clearer.

Hearing the high-pitched talk inside, the laughter kept coming, and the smell of wine came out, which made Zhang Fei sniff involuntarily.

"Who?"

Someone asked, as if hearing the sound of horses' hooves outside the door.

There was a curtain at the door, and only vaguely there were people inside, Liu Bei shouted outside: "I don't know if Mr. Kong Ming is here?" ”

"Please come in."

Someone inside the door spoke.

Liu Bei went in and saw that there were three middle-aged Confucian scholars inside, who were cooking wine and singing together, so he arched his hand and said, "I don't know which one is Mr. Zhuge Kongming?" ”

One of them asked, "What are you looking for Kong Ming?" ”

Liu Bei still bowed his hand and said seriously: "In the next Liu Bei, the word Xuande, I heard that there is a great sage in Longzhong, so I came to visit." ”

"Hahaha."

The three laughed.

One of them said, "There are indeed great sages in this Longzhong, but we are not Kong Ming. ”

"Oh?"

Liu Bei hurriedly asked, "I don't know who the three are?" ”

"In Xia Shitao, the word Guangyuan."

"In Xia Mengjian, the word is public."

"In Xia Cui Jun, the word Zhou Ping."

The three of them saluted one by one, it was Shi Tao, Meng Jian, and Cui Jun.

"It turned out to be three great sages."

Liu Bei had heard the names of the three from Xu Shu, and he knew that these three were their friends.

To be friends with Nuo Ge Liang Xu Shu Shen Chen, he must have wisdom in his chest, and he will definitely have their views on world affairs, so he arched his hand and said: "And today there is a big chaos, swords and soldiers are everywhere, the princes are divided, the traitors are in power, and the Han family is in danger, why do the three great sages live in seclusion here and don't ask about the world?" ”

Cui Jun shook his head with a smile and said: "I know that although Uncle Huang has the name of benevolence and righteousness, in my opinion, the major events in the world must be divided for a long time, and they must be divided for a long time, and it is not something that can be changed by manpower." Since ancient times, chaos has been impermanent. ”

"What's the point?"

Liu Bei frowned, he was a member of the Han family, and he didn't want to hear anything like that the Han family was irretrievable.

Cui Jun said: "Back then, Gaozu beheaded the White Snake and unveiled the uprising, killed Qin in three years, broke Chu in five years, and established the Han Dynasty, which was ruled by chaos and people. But the Han dynasty has been passed down to the world for more than 200 years, and it has been passed to Emperor Xiaoping, and there is a traitor Wang Mang. Wang Mang killed Emperor Ping with three cups of wine, Weng took away his son-in-law's business, and the world was chaotic, and the people could not live in peace. ”

Later, he relied on Emperor Guangwu Shizu to revive the Han family and reorganize the foundation. Since Guangwu, the world has been ruled by chaos and man. Now the Han family has been spread to the world for more than 200 years, and it has been passed to the two emperors of Huan and Ling. How long is it going to be messed up? Who can turn things around and change the way of the world? ”

"The so-called planning is in the people, and the success is in the sky, all of this is difficult to estimate and predict. Uncle Huang plans to ask Kong Ming to assist you in completing the business of the king and saving the Han family, with all due respect, I'm afraid it's not so easy. Even if Zhuge Liang goes out of the mountain, his efforts are in vain. Those who follow the sky escape, and those who go against the sky work. Where the number is, it is impossible to take it; Where life is, people cannot be strong. ”

Hearing his words, Liu Bei's brows furrowed even deeper.

He looked at Shi Tao and Meng Jian and said, "Is the same with the two gentlemen?" ”

Shi Tao smiled and said: "I don't think so, "Zhou Yi" has a saying that people are stronger than the sky. Throughout the ages, how many things have been done against the sky, even Shen Chen has done the same, but I am not intelligent enough to do it like Ah Chen, maybe Kong Ming can do it, who knows? ”

Meng Jian also said: "Yes, it's just that although I watch Ah Chen go against the sky, in the end, Cao Cao in the north is still successful, I'm afraid that the destiny of heaven is in Cao instead of Han, and we can only wait and see." ”

This is the difference in the concept of the three people, Cui Jun only thinks about not asking about the world, so he lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and places his love on the mountains and rivers all day long.

And Shi Tao and Meng Jian still have the idea of becoming a leader, but they are not like Shen Chen, who is against the sky, but wants to follow the mandate of heaven and see who can take over the world in the future.

Their fate is the same in history, Cui Jun lived in seclusion and eventually disappeared, Shi Tao and Meng Jian came out of Cao Wei, causing Zhuge Liang to sigh.

Liu Bei pondered for a moment, and finally could only smile bitterly: "The three gentlemen have a high opinion, but I, Liu Bei, am a relative of the Han family, and I should support the Han family, how dare I shirk the number and my life and ignore it?" ”

"I'm waiting for the mountain villager, I can't discuss the world's major events with the general, but the general came unfortunately, the reason why I am drinking here today is because Kong Ming is going to go out in the morning, and we are drinking here to see each other off, and we just left in the afternoon."

Cui Jun told him about the situation.

It turned out that it was freezing recently, and Zhuge Liang was afraid that Huang Yueying would live in the mountains for a long time and freeze his body, so he sent Huang Yueying back to her parents' home and lived in Longzhong by himself.

It happened that it was the end of the year recently, Zhuge Liang went to Xiangyang to buy some New Year's goods and send them to his father-in-law's house, he planned to celebrate the New Year at his father-in-law's house, so he invited three friends to come over for a get-together, and left in the afternoon in a carriage, almost with Liu Bei's front and back feet.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Zhang Fei was shocked: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go chase it." ”

As he spoke, he pulled Liu Bei out.

Liu Bei had no choice but to arch his hand and say, "Three gentlemen, prepare to leave." ”

"Take care, General."

The three of them respected him quite well and got up to say goodbye.

After getting out of the bamboo house and returning to the mountain road, the three of them chased for a while, but they did not find a trace.

On the way back, Liu Bei remembered that there was indeed a carriage passing by when he passed by the Pavilion before, but at that time, he only cared about looking at the silver-covered world in the distance and didn't pay attention.

At this moment, he was full of regret, Zhang Fei saw that he was annoyed and said: "If the eldest brother really wants to see that Kong Ming, let's go to his wife's uncle's house to find it." ”

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "How can you disturb Mr.'s family?" Let's just wait until next spring. ”

"Ugh."

Zhang Fei sighed, why is this eldest brother in his family so brainless?

The three of them returned to Xiangyang, and then took a boat south and returned to Jingnan.

Arrived in Xiangxiang before the end of the year.

It is winter to spring, in February of the eleventh year of Jian'an, the snow melts, and the spring flowers bloom.

Liu Bei went north again to Longzhong in Xiangyang.

In February, Longzhong Township has changed a different look, last year in the winter of the white world, at this moment is the wheat field is green, the mountains and forests are green, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

The original frozen water trickle of the stream, the peach forest in the mountains is fragrant, and the peach blossoms are in full bloom, as if in a certain year and month, the green water bank by the green mountains, the butterflies dance, and at that time life and death accompany each other, and the oath is unswerving.

"Second brother, third brother, look."

The three brothers walked up the mountain road, and Liu Bei saw the peach trees outside Zhuge Caolu in the distance blooming with brilliant peach blossoms, and said happily for a while: "There are peach blossoms in full bloom." ”

The peach blossoms are in full bloom in March and April, but in March and April of the solar calendar, and in February if it is the lunar calendar, especially in the south, it blooms very early.

Therefore, this is the season of peach blossoms, and the mountains are full of pink and dazzling, and it is beautiful.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also stood on tiptoe to look, with a smile on their faces.

In the shadow of the peach forest and bamboo, there was a scholar in a Confucian robe, walking slowly under the flowers, and the slender figure used scissors to trim the flower forest.

He turned his back to the three of them, but he didn't see his face.

I only heard a young voice chanting softly: "Peach Blossom Nunnery in Peach Blossom Dock, Peach Blossom Fairy in Peach Blossom Nunnery." The peach blossom fairy planted peach trees and picked peach blossoms for wine money. When you wake up, you only come to sit with flowers, and when you are drunk, you come to sleep with flowers. Half-awake and half-drunk, day after day, flowers fall and bloom year after year. ”

"Sir?"

Liu Bei stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck, and called out repeatedly: "But Mr. Kong Ming? ”

Zhuge Liang's movements in his hand froze, he was stunned for a moment, and slowly turned around.

What kind of figure did he see?

It's a memory that even after many years, when I think about it occasionally, I can't help but smile.

Liu Bei stood there, looking at him with a smile.

With a big smile on his face, he was happy like a child, beckoning constantly.

Is that him?

It's him.

Uncle Huang is a little older.

The ends of my hair are gray.

It turned out that before I knew it, it had been 12 years.

He has also gone from being a hot-blooded warrior in his early thirties to now he is not confused, approaching the destiny of heaven.

Time, has it gone so fast?

Yes.

Looking back on it now.

That year in Xuzhou, he and his uncle followed his team all the way south, Cao Cao slaughtered Xuzhou, and saw countless white bones.

Among the countless people who avoided him, he was the only one who was obliged to save the people of Xuzhou.

The world said he was stupid.

But if there was no fool, how many people would have died in Xuzhou?

Perhaps it was at that time that I was already admiring his benevolence and faithfulness.

It's just that I was young and couldn't do anything.

Time flies now.

I thought it was just a passerby in life, and I would never meet again in this life.

See you at this moment.

Maybe that's providence.

Zhuge Liang thought to himself.

He put down the scissors in his hand, wiped the dust off his body, tidied up his robe, and then returned the same bright smile.

Slowly bent down in the direction of Liu Bei and bowed his hand, lowered his head and whispered.

"Kong Ming, I've seen Uncle Huang."

Uncle Huang.

Ryo has been waiting for a long, long time.

It's like three lives and three lives.
